Always remember some of my daughters first words. We were in the car going through town, she was in her baby seat in the back, and all of a sudden this little voice parrotted the slogan from tv - " Michael Hill Jewellers" !
We cracked up...
She also sang along to the Neighbours theme song but it was mostly nonsense words. Eighties baby...

Well done, that daughter!
Those ads were everywhere back then.

Blast from the past (and Michael was born in December 1938 so 86, or in his 87th year).

He had a pretty good innings really.
